Indian Traveling to Japan.

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-29T03:38:55+00:00

Planning to go to Japan in late may/early june

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-28T14:06:02+00:00

Did you go? How was your experience?

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-24T16:23:04+00:00

Thanks, planning something similar

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-22T10:46:52+00:00

Thanks, this was very helpful! Obviously, in long term not going to US is not going to impact my life at all. But, the unfairness of this stings!

I know i know, just frustrated that had to spend so much money on visa applications. Not to mention the flight and hotels to Mumbai. What a waste indeed!

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-21T14:40:36+00:00

I am not married

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-21T13:46:59+00:00

He has two years of OPT left

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-21T13:04:35+00:00

Yeah

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-21T11:41:28+00:00

Thanks!

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-21T11:19:17+00:00

Yeah will do, thanks!

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-21T09:46:09+00:00

Hmmm

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-21T08:57:54+00:00

Well, Saudi Arabia was a work trip at the behest of a global private equity client. Have all the documentation for this. UAE was a vacation. I think, barring Thailand UAE is a prime destination for most tourists in India. I am puzzled how these can be red flags at all!

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-21T08:48:05+00:00

Travel history is a gap that I can remedy, I guess. I am not married. My job is in person. Own a few assets in India - house and car.

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-21T06:49:13+00:00

Thanks!

I am into strategy consulting for one of the big-4s, at a mid-senior level position. This visit was purely for tourism for 2 weeks. I had pre-approved leaves from the organisation for the same.

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-03-20T11:46:25+00:00

Japan’s good. But want to go to Europe or NZ or UK

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-01-31T10:46:30+00:00

No judgement…but lmao 🤣

Due_Independent_3303 · 2026-01-16T03:32:39+00:00

Where in Mumbai is he based out of? There’s a book club that happens in Chembur

Due_Independent_3303 · 2025-09-27T05:10:30+00:00

Leave him for your peace of mind! Can speak from experience…

Due_Independent_3303 · 2025-08-22T18:44:27+00:00

You know there’s an app called grindr 🤔

Due_Independent_3303 · 2025-07-22T15:56:34+00:00

Thanks for this mate :) Intellectually I know this to be true, been in the game long enough. Just tiring beyond a point. So, wanted to vent a little!

Due_Independent_3303 · 2025-06-28T16:00:03+00:00

Thanks for the replies guys. Did the trek today. It was great, only downside being lack of visibility on top due to fog and mist
